"The Secret Life of Bees" by Sue Monk Kidd was really a fantastic book. A big part of the book was the underlying theme of countering racism. The narrator Lily Owens' life in the book stars out quite rocky: her learning she killed her mother accidentally, and a not so fantastic father T.Ray. Lily's idea of racism is very different that others, adn she overcomes it towards the end of the book. "The Secret Life of Bees" really opened my eyes and made me look at things from another point of view.
Definitely a book I could read again.
